2016 ar190 tower height and position

[rick marzen]

hey guys, I'm getting a custom tower made for my sx190 and was wondering how tall the forward swept factory tower is from the floor? Also, I was wondering how far the front of the tower is from the rear of the windshield? Anyone that can help would be appreciated.

I think you're better off going to your local dealer and measuring things yourself...

I will get the measurement for you this weekend if we take the boat out and if no one else has responded by then. Forgot about this thread or I would have done it for you last Saturday.

 

[rick marzen]

Thanks a lot. I appreciate that.

I haven't forgot about you @rick marzen before leaving for the lake today!

Here's the measurements:
From floor to bottom of top tower surface approximately 73-1/2"

From rear of windshield to front of tower mount base approximately 4-1/4"

Do you have a sketch of what the tower will look like? How much $ is the custom tower going to cost you?

I ask because after a VERY long internal debate of what tower to buy, I almost bout an OEM tower, I pulled the trigger on an Aerial Freeride for my 2015 SX192. I have a feeling that it might look a lil weird on the boat so I am ready to take it to a shop should it need to be modified in any way.

Thanks for the photos. If you have a chance, and think of it, the only other measurement I needed is the front of the tower to the first mount on the boat. Like a plumb bob from the top of the tower, measure from the hanging string to the mount? Thanks again
@Irvs , the tower is from Samson sports. Called the harpoon tower. Then he custom makes it to your boat and your specs. 2500$ plus shipping on a truck. So it's more $. One piece tower, very strong. Other towers are multiple pieces, ship ups. No sketches available now. Maybe later. You can't buy a Yamaha OEM tower. They request a hull I'd # for replacement towers. Already tried. Hope this helps.

I'll try and get you that dimension next time I have the boat out.

Thanks.

I've got the tower up in my garage currently. Walked out and measured this for you.

Dropped a plumb from the front of the tower to the floor. Then laid a straight edge across the front of the tower mount and measured between the two. This is probably plus or minus an inch or so.

That is awesome, I appreciate it so much. Now I can order the tower.

No problem at all. Good luck with the new tower, and be sure to throw some pictures up when it's installed!

Well, I started the process last week and this past weekend. Fingers crossed...

Tower looks great @rick marzen! Very close to an OEM look.
